Question
On Rosh Chodesh Tevet, there is one Torah scroll in the synagogue, and when it was opened for reading, it was found to be open to the Chanukah reading from the previous minyan. Is it permissible to roll it to the Rosh Chodesh reading before Chanukah, or should we not pass over the mitzvot?
Answer
Roll it to Rosh Chodesh.
